Apple has an amazing and busy 2024! From the lackluster Apple Vision Pro to the impressive iPhone 16 series, we saw several Apple products in 2024. Also, the tech titan finally entered the AI league with its Apple Intelligence system. Remarkably, Apple is set to blow your mind with some incredible hardware announcements in 2025. According to the rumors & reports, Apple has planned at least 22 new products for 2025. This includes major upgrades to the iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch, along with some surprising entries. In this article, we’ve mentioned every Apple product coming in 2025. Here you go!
iPhone SE 4
Expected Release Window: March 2025
Rumored to arrive in March 2025, the iPhone SE 4 is expected to be a massive upgrade over the aging iPhone SE 3, the entry-level option in Apple’s iPhone lineup. With the iPhone SE 4, Apple will ditch the outdated iPhone 8 chassis and opt for a modern look with a full-screen design and Face ID. The upcoming iPhone SE 4 will take design inspiration from the iPhone 14 to feature a 6.1-inch display with a notch. In addition, the iPhone SE 4 will likely make an entry with a programmable Action Button, 48MP primary camera, and USB-C port. Thanks to the A18 chipset and 8GB RAM, the iPhone SE 4 would become the cheapest way to enjoy Apple Intelligence features, alongside the current iPad Mini 7. With a ton of impressive upgrades and AI support, Apple’s upcoming mid-ranger is even expected to beat the iPhone 15.
Command Center/ HomePad
Expected Release Window: March 2025
We’ve heard a lot about Apple’s new category- a smart home display. While we don’t know what Apple will call its rumored smart home device, the topshot analyst Mark Gurman tipped it to be “Command Center”. This Apple product coming in 2025 would feature an iPad-like 6-inch display with a customizable home screen that you can mount on a wall or put on a tabletop and operate with your voice. The Command Center would run the new “homeOS” with smart home controls and a rechargeable battery. In addition, there will be Siri & Apple Intelligence support and a built-in camera to make FaceTime video calls. While there won’t be a dedicated App Store, Command Center will arrive with native apps like Safari, Calendar, Apple Music, Notes, Apple News, and more.
With the Command Center, Apple would directly rival the likes of Google Nest and Amazon Echo Show.
M4 MacBook Air
Expected Release Window: March-June 2025
We’ve got the latest M4 MacBook Pros in 2024, and Apple’s most popular Mac lineup is about to get an upgrade in 2025. According to several reports, we should see the 13-inch & 15-inch MacBook Air with M4 should arrive in the first half of 2025. The upgraded MacBook Airs will arrive with M4 processors, an upgraded 16GB RAM, a 12MP Center Stage Camera, and a Nano-texture display option. Thanks to the M4 processor, the 2025 MacBook Air models will offer an improved battery life and better Apple Intelligence support.
iPad 11
Expected Release Window: March-June 2025
In 2024, we did get the new iPad Air, iPad Pro, and iPad Mini, but the base iPad model is due for an upgrade. Currently, the iPad 10 is the only model in Apple’s current tablet lineup that lacks Apple Intelligence support. The Cupertino tech giant was originally expected to launch the 11th-generation iPad this year, but for unknown reasons, the release has been pushed to 2025. Although we don’t know the exact specifications, the upcoming iPad 11 will arrive with a faster chip, 8GB RAM, and Apple Intelligence compatibility.
iPad Air M3
Expected Release Window: March-June 2025
Apple just revealed a brand-new iPad Air with an M2 chip and two size options in May 2024. Interestingly, there are rumors that the tech titan will launch an M3 iPad Air next year. Several rumors indicate that we might have to wait until May, but Apple might surprise everyone with an early release as well. As for the specifications, we only know that the 2025 iPad Air will arrive with an upgraded M3 for improved performance and battery life. Even better, Apple might skip the M3 and launch the new iPad Air with the M4 too. Except for the processor, there’s very little known about the upcoming model.
Alongside the new model, Apple will also launch a new Magic Keyboard for iPad Air with a thinner & lighter design, a larger glass trackpad, a palm rest, and a row of function keys.
AirTag 2
Expected Release Window: Mid 2025
Launched back in April 2021, Apple’s item-tracking accessory is certainly due for an upgrade now. According to several rumors and reports, Apple certainly has plans for its next-generation AirTag. Mark Gurman reported that Apple will launch AirTag 2 in mid-2025. While the overall design will remain unchanged, AirTag 2 will boast an upgraded wireless chip, tamper protections, a more durable speaker, better privacy, and improved location tracking for farther distances. Also, the new AirTag 2 might have an integration with Apple Vision Pro.
Mac Studio
Expected Release Window: Mid 2025
In 2025, we’ll see Apple refreshing its desktop Mac lineup with a new Mac Studio. Just like the Mac mini, Apple might skip the M3 processor and jump right from M2 to M4 processors, making the new model a massive upgrade over the current model. We’ll get to see a new 2025 Mac Studio with M4 Max and M4 Ultra processors.
Mac Pro
Expected Release Window: Mid 2025
If the Mac Studio gets an update, the Mac Pro will also get a nice upgrade in spring 2025. Apple didn’t change the design of the Mac Studio since it launched the first model with the Apple Silicon update. In 2025, we don’t expect to see any design changes, but we’ll surely witness a performance boost with the M4 Ultra processor.
Apple TV 4K (4th generation)
Expected Release Window: First half of 2025
Apple is also reportedly working on its next-generation Apple TV 4K. While the giant hasn’t confirmed any features or improvements, insiders believe that the fourth-generation Apple TV 4K will focus heavily on gaming. The new model will feature a newer chip for better gaming performance and an in-house Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chip with Wi-Fi 6E support.
HomePod 3 and HomePod Mini 2
Expected Release Window: July-September 2025
Joining the list of upcoming Apple products in 2025 is the new HomePod with a display. Certainly, the screen will make the HomePod more versatile and useful so you can listen to music, watch YouTube videos, make FaceTime calls, and much more on a single device. The upcoming HomePod 3 is speculated to feature an OLED screen, A18 chipset, and Apple Intelligence support.
In addition, Apple is also likely to launch a HomePod mini 2 in 2025. The upgraded HomePod mini 2 will feature a new S-series chip, improved sound quality, a second-gen Ultra Wideband chip, an Apple-designed Wi-Fi & Bluetooth chip, and new color options.
iPhone 17 & iPhone 17 Air
Expected Release Window: September 2025
One of the most obvious additions to the Apple products launching in 2025 is the iPhone 17 lineup. Every year, it’s the Pro models that steal all the limelight at the iPhone launch event. In 2025, it could be the rumored iPhone 17 Slim or iPhone 17 Air that grabs the most attention. The iPhone 17 Air is tipped to be the thinnest iPhone ever, measuring a mere 0.24 inches. It will replace the Plus model and feature the same 6.6-inch display but with the much-needed 120Hz refresh rate. Additional specifications include A19 chipset, 48MP primary camera, 24MP front camera, and 8GB RAM. The standard iPhone 17 will offer the same specifications in a smaller, 6.1-inch design. At $899, the slimmest iPhone would be cheaper than the iPhone 17 Pro models.
iPhone 17 Pro & iPhone 17 Pro Max
Expected Release Window: September 2025
Like every year, the iPhone 17 Pro models will boast several pro-exclusive features including a more capable A19 Pro chipset, 48MP tetraprism Telephoto camera, and easier-to-remove batteries. However, the iPhone 17 Pro models are rumored to bring some weird design changes. Unlike the Titanium frame seen on the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro models, the iPhone 17 Pro will feature a lightweight aluminum frame with a part-glass rear for wireless charging. Also, compared to the existing models, the iPhone 17 Pro models might boast a larger camera bump.
AirPods Pro 3
While the AirPods Pro 3 isn’t confirmed for 2025 as we’ve got the AirPods 4 with ANC, the rumors are heating up as we move into the new year. The new AirPods Pro 3 might get a slimmer design, a new chip for improved audio & a better ANC experience, and a new capacitive pairing button. Also, Apple is planning to add cameras, health sensors, and AI features to AirPods. However, there’s no guarantee these features will make their way to AirPods Pro 3 in 2025.
Apple Watch Series 11
Expected Release Window: September 2025
Just like the iPhone 17 series, the Apple Watch Series 11 is sure to make an entry in 2o25. In September 2024, the Apple Watch Series 10 arrived with a larger display, a new S10 SoC, faster charging, and Sleep Apnea detection. In 2025, we might get to see the Apple Watch Series 11 with blood pressure monitoring. Also, to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Apple Watch, the tech giant might impress its superfans with a redesigned Apple Watch in 2025.
Apple Watch Ultra 3
Expected Release Window: September 2025
This year, the standard Apple Watch lineup got an update with the Apple Watch Series 10, but the Ultra and SE models are due for a generational refresh. If Apple follows its usual timeline, we’ll get to see an Apple Watch Ultra 3 in 2025 with features like 5G connectivity, messages via satellite, and blood pressure monitoring.
Apple Watch SE 3
Expected Release Window: September 2025
Like the high-end model, Apple’s affordable smartwatch lineup will also get a generational update in 2025. The Apple Watch SE will arrive with a plastic casing, a newer chip, larger 41mm & 45mm case options, and a cheaper price tag. If we believe some rumors, Apple might add more health-centric features to the Apple Watch SE 3 to make it a solid upgrade over the existing models. Although Apple typically launches its smartwatches in September, some rumors suggest that the giant could move the Apple Watch SE 3 release date to spring.
iPad Pro M5
Expected Release Window: Late 2025
In late 2025, Apple will launch its next-generation iPad Pro with the M5 chip. In May 2024, we saw the first-ever OLED iPad Pro with a fresh design, powerful innards, lightweight chassis, and an outrageously capable M4 chip. Next year, the giant will offer a brand-new iPad Pro with its upcoming M5 chipset, an insanely capable chip for resource-intensive tasks and powerful AI performance. As of now, we don’t have any details regarding the M5 iPad Pro, except for the fact that it will arrive in 2025.
MacBook Pro M5
Expected Release Window: Late 2025
In addition to M5 iPads, Apple will also launch the new MacBook Pros with M5, M5 Pro, and M5 Max chipsets in 2025. This year, we got the MacBook Pro with M4, M4 Pro, and M4 Max chipsets, which brought a remarkable jump in performance, especially regarding the Neural Engine capabilities. With Thunderbolt 5 connectivity, upgraded 16GB base RAM, and improved battery life, M4 MacBook Pro models make a worthy upgrade over the current models. In short, the MacBook experience is only going to get better with M5 processors in 2025.
Apple Vision Pro 2
Expected Release Window: Late 2025 or Spring 2026
You might not bother about it, but Apple is likely to come up with its second-generation mixed-reality headset in 2025. The major highlight of the Apple Vision Pro 2 would be the inclusion of the yet-unannounced M5 chipset, which would make it a substantial upgrade over the first Vision Pro with M2 chip. The upcoming M5 chipset is sure to take the computing power to a whole new level and deliver a top-notch Apple Intelligence experience.
Those are the Apple products we’re expected to see in 2025. In addition to hardware, Apple will roll out more Apple Intelligence features, the next set of OSes, and upgraded chipsets next year. What do you think about these Apple products coming in 2025? Let us know in the comments below!
